If you've ever felt that certain experiences are preventing you from achieving your true potential - but you're not sure exactly what they are - then past-life regression therapy could help.
Past Life Regression is a New Age therapy where people probe into what they think is their past to find answers to questions plaguing them in the present. A therapist puts clients in a state of deep relaxation, in an attempt to delve into their "pasts" and find clues about their previous lives. Uncovering a traumatic event in a previous incarnation, they say, can help us understand why we have psychological - and even physiological - problems today.
The stages that occur in regression illuminate much about the psychology of the soul. Even though a lifetime may be in the distant past, it can be very present in the current life psyche. These circumstances from the past shape who we are today. The past and the future are tied together by the present, and the choices we make now affect both. Self knowledge of where we have been, and resolution of any limitations from the past allows us greater freedom in the present and subsequently the future.
Examining these "lives" can reveal why we harbor certain fears, behaviors or habits, or even why we experience deja vu from time to time. Past Life Regression can not only help us understand our own character better and why we act the way we do, but also explains why we are drawn towards specific individuals - because we have met them before, of course!
